This weather has crushed my ice fishing. I couldn’t even get on the ice today because of the open water. It’s supposed to rain tonight, followed by temps in the 50’s. If things don’t turn around, it will be an early close to this season.

Odd. I started this blog 4 years ago. Initially I posted several times a day, then several times a week, then next to never. Gordon hasn’t posted in months, and Jonathan dropped off the face of the earth. I think he finally got laid. Now politics is on the front burner, and that’s normally prime blogging material for me. I just don’t give a shit this year. Sure, I watch all the debates and follow the issues, but I’m not excited about any of the candidates. So what have I been up to?

The usual. Hunting. Ice fishing. Working on the house. Playing COD4 on the XBox 360. Working, working, working. The same things still piss me off. Speaking of which, what the fuck is wrong with our welfare system?

I ran across an odd family last month, and walked away irate. It’s a mother with 5 kids, multiple fathers. Mom doesn’t speak one word of English, and has been living in this country for 20 years. I’m unsure of her status, but she is not a citizen. She doesn’t work, and as far as I know never has. She lives in government subsidized housing, and collects some form of assistance. Why the fuck are my tax dollars paying for this? I hate welfare to begin with, but the realization that we are IMPORTING people to give our money to burns me.

I wish I could build my own country. Not many moonbats would want to live there, though.
